I opened up some of the frontpage animations in Scratch and noticed how they don't use a timeline but instead actions to indicate movements and whatnot.

I was wondering, how easy is it to recreate a high-quality flash animation in Scratch considering this is a software for making games? is it easy or difficult?

It's very easy.

In fact, animations are easier to make than games, just they use some different functions.

The best way to learn is to download a (good) animation and take it apart. Learn how it works, 'ya know?

Animations mostly use the costume blocks, wait block and glide block.

Animations can be significantly easier to program than games in Scratch.
The majority of time spent on most high-quality animations is on creating the graphics and music.

And broadcasts.

But yeah, GOD_M0D3's correct, just download a good animation, and see if you can work out all the scripts wink
